HONEY IN WOOL.

According to a wool-grower, who
speaks in the Salt Lake Tribune,
sheep husbandry pays in Utah as
well as elsewhere. He says: "We
can make money at twelve and one
half cents per pound for our wool.
but we always get more than that. It
costs from fifty to ffty-fve cents per
head per year to herd, feed, pay taxes,
shear, market our wool, etc. We get
three crops each year from our herds;
lambs, wool, and the sale of Wethers.
We can safely calculate upon an in
crease Of thirty-three per cent per
annum in our herds. While we can
make a profit on raising wool at
twelve and a half cents per pound, it
costs eastern growers about double
that to produce wool. Sheepmen
have been very prosperous in Utah
and are still making money. Most Of
the fiocks are in the hands Of private
individuals, with here and there an
association Of capital invested in the
business. The Wool Growers As
ISOLATION Of Southern Utah was or
ganized for the purpose Of marketing
the wool Of the 250,O0O sheep owned
by the association. The other wool
produced in the territory is handled
by some four or five dealers and near
" all the product goes east for sale
and manufacture"

TRAM ROBBERS are becoming more
audaeions In. Texas. Their latest ex-
plot was performed on Saturday
morning last, near Flatonia which
is only IS miles east Of San Antonio.
According to the Geographic account,
when the train drew up at the station,
two men with drawn revolvers mount
ed the engine, covered the engineer
and forced him to pull the train to
the open prairie, where there were
eight or ten men armed with VIM
chester rifles. The two robbers on
the engine stood guard oven the man
at the throttle while the others went
through the mail, express and pas
senger cars. Nearly all Of the pas
sengers were asleep and unaware of
what was going on until they were
aroused by the robbers. All the pas
sengers were relieved of their yalu-
ables. It appears also that the rob-
bers treated brutally some of the pas
sengers. It is high time to rid the
country of these train robbers. AS
the safety of the mails is involved,
the government should aid the Texan
authorities by placing United States
troops IN each express train. That
plan is adopted with suceess on the
Vera Cruz linein Mexico.

Old Settlers Return.

J. r. Williamson, one of Seattle's
oldest citizens, returned home this
week via the Canadian Pacific, after a
seven months visit to the Eastern
States. In speaking with a reporter
of the Intelligencer, Mr.. Williamson
said:
Il first went to New York, to visit
my fathers folks, whom l had not
seen for forty years. remained there
until the cold weather set in, and then
went south till the cold weather was
over. l visited Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher before his death, and he gave
me letter to the Mayor of New York,
and showed me many courtesies. l
then visited Washington, and Presi-
dent Cleveland invited me to call on
him, which / did. He asked me all
about the troubles here on February
7th, 1886, and gave him my views
very fully. While in the East l made
my headquarters with Mum & Co.,
publishers of the Scientific American,
and they extended to me every cour-
tesy in their power. l would have
been home sooner. but / was en-
ployed for some time in overhauling
and fixing up AZ electric light plant
in a small town in New York State. l
am greatly surprised and pleased to
find that Seattle has recovered from
her temporary depression and to find
things fairly booming in the city.
Why, hardly knew Front street, it
was SO changed, and all this railroad
work around here was a revelation to
me. While in Washington, saw Mr..
Whitworth and several other Seattle
men, including that fellow Wegener,
who used to be about here. Iapplied
for patent on ii discovery | recently
made while experimenting with cleo
tricity, and if ! succeed in getting my
patent I shall be fully repaid for my
trip, financially speaking. My visit to
my old home fully repaid me SO far as
pleasure is concerned"
